Mecenate Palace

"This is a very comfortable hotel in an elegant, period building, with a roof terrace overlooking the magnificent Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. The hotel is within easy walking distance of Termini station and three Metro stops, with several bus routes passing close by, making for a very convenient as well as attractive location. The staff, many of whom speak good English, are friendly and helpful, and the breakfast (served on the roof terrace) is excellent. Highly recommended."

"After visiting the tomb of Pope Francis from Santa Maria Maggiore, we looked for a nice lunch. Russell and Dianne, hotel staff, greeted us kindly and invited us to try their dishes. We did, and what a pleasant surprise! The service was excellent! The food! Yup! Better than the ones we tried from Trastevere! Spaghetti Amatriciana was perfect! The bacon was crunchy, and the sauce had the right amount of thickness and richness! The Pinsi Romana Focaccia con crudo was the best! The crunchiness of the crust and the slightly thicker prosciutto freshly cut and a little bit of basil was heaven! I'll be coming back here, if ever I made my third trip to Rome!"

"We stayed at Residenza Mecenate, which is a property managed by Mecenate Palace Hotel for a week as our home base to explore Rome during our pilgrim to Holy Doors. It is nicely located near one of the churches, which is also a resting place of the late Pope Frances. Also, within walking distance from Termini Station and Metro. The room is very spacious, clean and has everything that we need. We really enjoyed our stay and will love to stay here again if we come and visit Rome again in the future."
